UNSPSC 31161802: Bevel washers

UNSPSC 31161802 Bevel washers is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure fastening hardware and related components for infrastructure maintenance, construction, and transit operations. The recent activity shows minimal overlap between the code's nominal scope and actual state-local purchasing patterns: one opportunity (Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority, January 2026) is explicitly for lock washers, a related fastener product, while the other major solicitation (City of Lavonia, Georgia water treatment plant upgrades, April 2026) is a construction project that may incidentally require fastening hardware but is nominally tagged to this code without evidence that bevel washers are a primary focus. The code does not show concentrated activity across a defined issuing-body profile; the two recent opportunities span a transit authority and a municipal water utility, neither of which appears to be a repeat buyer under this specific code at scale.

Recent activity is minimal and geographically dispersed. The Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority issued a purchase order for lock washers (7/16" medium, package of 100) with a submission deadline of January 28, 2026, through the BONFIRE platform under Net 30 payment terms and FOB Destination shipping. The City of Lavonia, Georgia (operating under Fayette County) issued an IFB for comprehensive water treatment plant improvements on April 24, 2026, with a sealed-bid deadline of May 26, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on May 7, 2026; this project involves substantial infrastructure construction but is not primarily a fastener procurement. The code's actual utility appears limited to incidental hardware sourcing rather than as a primary procurement category for state and local entities.
